I would not recommend this book to anyone. It was disjointed, flipping back and forth between T
Years. The author had too many story lines.
The Girls of Good Fortune is another must-read volume for fans of historical fiction by the very talented Kristina McMorris, whose other books include The Ways We Hide, Sold on a Monday, The Edge of Lost, Bridge of Scarlet Leaves, and Letters from Home.
I also recommend historical fiction by Kristin Hannah, Kristin Harmel, Pam Jenoff, Sara Ackerman, Patti Callahan Henry, Katherine Reay, Genevieve Graham, Susan Meissner, Jennifer Coburn, Lisa Bar, Lisa Scottoline, and many others!!
For those wishing to learn more about Chinese history and culture, I highly recommend Lady Tan’s Circle of Women by Lisa See.
My in-person book club recently read and loved Strangers in Time by David Baldacci.
And, of course, three works of historical fiction by the incomparable William Kent Krueger are also on my list of books I always and highly recommend: The River We Remember, This Tender Land, and Ordinary Grace.
